Official Post Game Thread- Pats with a crazy win against Pitt

[ashley]

It was the only thing he did right in the game..

but a good time for him to make his one play

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

How bad did the burkhead injury looked? I hope it's nothing serious.

 

[AtomicDawg]

Not sure if this was mentioned yet but Gronk had 69 yards on the final drive.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Geez still processing that ending hadnt even had time to think about gronk..., where does that last drive by gronk rank in terms of utter dominance by a reciever?? Pretty sure he had every yard but the run by dion and the 2 pointer

Yea I'm with you.

Surreal still

 

[WhoaDirty]

I was gonna do some work after the game but with an ending like that, how could I? It would take me the whole night to read the post game threads on the Steelers forum.

I think reading the GDT from page 100 forward will be fun for days.

What a way to start my vacation.

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

We just smacked our *****es around today.

Rejoice!

They did? They squeaked out a very tough game.
Yes a great win. But no blow out, by any means.

I love it, but gloating is a little overboard, IMO.

Nothing personal. Enjoy the win .
I am.

9th straight Division championship.. WOOOOOOOO

 

[Observer]

There were plenty of positives in this game.
- Fleming held up very well.
- Gronk looked even more Gronk-like than normal.
- Kenny Britt got his 1st reception.
- Matt Slater made a magnificent play on the punt coverage to down the ball at the 3.

I know... but I was thinking in terms of seeing some growth. We know Gronk and Slater are great. I will confess that I hadn’t paid attention to Fleming but just saw the online as a whole sucking. Gronk heroics reinforced the notion that our receiving corps right now is a one man show. I am not saying the others don’t contribute. They definitely do but they can’t be relied on to win their individual battles the way Gronk can.

Someone tell jerkweed dingleberry D'Angelo Williams the Pats covered.

Everybody laugh and point.

Climax aside (what a thing to say!?) . this win has a lot of “play better, coach better“ in it.

Id guess BB will be “great job“, “great complementary football“ in the locker room and hard-boiled on Monday at film session.

The best of both worlds: the most important W in a regular season + clear reality check

I take it. Given how banged up this team is, how they went 5-1 in 6 games where 5 were away, how this was a short week after a MNF stinker and how impactful this game was I can only say I dont give a **** right now about aesthetics.

Now we can hopefully stay home until Minneapolis.

What about you? Do you have gear?

lol people talking about the Pats being lucky

Have you watched the steelers this year? This was the Pats snatching the horseshoe out of their ass.

Maybe next time the steelers should spike and kick the fg and go to OT instead of trying to be heroes.

And I don't want to hear about Antonio Brown

Pats currently without their
#1, #3 and #4 WR
#1 RT
#1, #2 and #3 LB
#3 and #4 DT
Top Rookie (Rivers DE/LB) draft pick who was apparently looking good in pre-season.
Lost their #2 RB during the game
I'm not even counting Bennett


And apparently i'm seeing on twitter the Eli Rogers TD shouldn't have counted. Not sure what that's about but if that is truly the case then that might have been 4 points off the board.

Minutes after the game....Hi Roger, Dan Rooney, what the hell happened?? I thought you had that group under control...

 

[gatsby47]

Had a great time watching this. Yes we're up,down,up, down up... When I view other league games and find myself surfing to see if Bogie has said "Here's looking at you kid!" On the edge excitement must show powers at NFL that parity sucks. All those teams with mathematical chances into the 15th week. So blah. Well, enough of that. I don't care if our defense bends. We have shown our resilience so often. On to Buffalo.
PATS WIN. GOATS for Gronk, B and B

What did I miss? Good game?

I am truly sorry for you...

I just hope BB continues to let Gronk see Alex Guerrero

MVP

Teams can't restrict players from seeking out their own "specialists". It's part of the CBA..
